if u have done mba then it is easy 4 u eitherwise u have to consult some MBA degree holders.
this course covers major 3 to 5 subjects of mba degree course
1-management
2-marketing
3-financial management


for managemnt book------Horold Koontz and Heinz Weihrich
marketing book-------William J. Stanton
for financial management book----Fundamentals of Financial Management Van Horn

keep one thing in mind that one book is not sufficient for one subject
like marketing is ur own finger tip

there is another book for management
Robins Stephen these two books will cover every thing
for fin management the above book is enough but u need a teacher who can provide u a hand in understanding of basic termonology

Hi.

I also intend to take up bus. adm., having done MBA.

Here are the books we had:

Management: Introduction to Managemnet by Bovee and Thill
Marketing: Philip Kotler (the best book one can have for marketing)
Fin.management: Brigham

So far, I haven't seen anyone giving tips for bus.adm paper. Has anyone taken it? Guidance required.

Yes, I haven't seen much seniors recommending books for Business Administration on this forum. Don't know what could be the reason, maybe it is a diverse subject covering 3 separate areas and for each of them, there are several books in the market.

For Management, what about Management by Richard L. Daft?
I had this in IBA in the 'Principles of Management' course. Quite a complete, concise book on the subject.

Can any qualified senior please recommend the books he/she used during the preparation for Business Administration?
It would be highly appreciated. =)

Regards.

As i have completed MBA, i will suggest the following books

Principles of Marketing by Philip Kotler,
Management by Danny Samson & Richard L. Daft
Fundamentals of Financial Management by Van Horne

But for the management i found "Strategic Management and Business Policy" by Thomas L. Wheelen & David Hunger the best book. It is very comprehensive & having all basic and strategic management concepts in a sequence covered in just 300 pages. So it is MUST READ Book for Business Administration.

Cheers

Marketing Book of Philip kotler is the best book for a excellent preparation as it contains half of the outlines for Bus Administration.

Finally a desperately needed book for business administration is out in the market specifically for CSS covering all topics of marketing, management, accounting and financial management as per the syllabus of CSS.


Business Administration by Sibtain Afzal published by jahangir books

hi I would like to share my experience regarding business ad. If you have done mba then it is easy for you other wise never opt this subject.
For marketing kotler book is good and sufficient.
For management robbins book is good
For finance gitman or even ven horn book is good.
I got 77 and 63 marks in my previous attempts...
