From the title, I believe it to be a straight forward question, but looking into the "world of Business Objects" I can't seem to put my finger on anything solid as to what a Business Object should be. Are there any best practices that I should follow, or even any design patterns?

I have found a book, "Expert C# Business Objects", would this be my best starting point to get a better understanding?
