Business Rules

Hi, I'm new here. I have two questions: In school, my Systems Analysis class used the book, Systems Analysis and Design in a Changing World, by John Satzinger, edition 3. The reviews of the latest release of this book are not good. Is there another book that would be much better as a reference? Also, have you ever worked on a project where the client had no business rules? I'm being told that my client doesn't have business rules, and it's really concerning me because I have never worked on a project where there were none. This client is a very large government entity. Is it possible there are no business rules? Thanks!

Re: Business Rules

Business rules are statements of policy or regulatory requirements. All government entitiies have regulatory requirements and thus will have business rules. If they didn't they wouldn't exist.
