Well, a Business Object is generally considered to be a class that represents an Entity, e.g. a Book or a Store. Such a class has certain properties like price, colour, width, isbn number etc. In Java or .NET, it consists of so-called setters and getters, i.e. methods that set or get those properies.

The Business Logic on the other hand is that part of a program that works with that properties, i.e. how is this book sold. The business logic layer uses the business objects in order to access the database.
