Princples of Macroeconomics by Mankiw - you won't cover a lot of economics, but it's a good introductory text to have and it's the likely book you will be using
•
Corporate Finance: Principles and Practice by Head and Watson - it's a favourtie of mine when it comes to corporate finance. Generally the number of textbooks you can look into for corporate finance will be vast, and not all of them will be good
•
Management and Cost Accounting by Drury - it's a favourite of mine when it comes to second year management accounting. You are less than likely to even use 20% of the book for your accounting module, but it's there if you want
•
Quantitative Methods: for Business, Management and Finance by Swift and Piff - it's a good stats book for 1st and 2nd year stats. Personally an AS textbook on stats and decision maths in my opinion would cover most of the material in here, but the text is good for the stats material in your course
•
A Random Walk Down Wall Street by Malkiel - it's a favourite amongs financial economists and investors
•
The Intelligent Investor by Graham - he was the mentor to Warren Buffett
•
The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable by Taleb - more to do with investment
•
Fooled by Randomness: The Hidden Role of Chance in Life and in the Markets by Taleb
•
Most books by Michael Lewis - the author used to work in the financial sector, and his insights can make for great light reading (there will be a lot of explicit language, so I wouldn't exactly recommend quoting his books in your personal statement)
•
Security Analysis by Graham and Dodd - more for investing
•
Sheila I. Robinson author. (2018) Book-keeping and accounts / Sheila Robinson; formerly by Frank Wood. Ninth edition. Harlow, England; New York: Pearson

Gregory Mankiw author. (2017) Economics / N. Gregory Mankiw and Mark P. Taylor. Fourth edition. Mark P. Taylor 1958- author. (ed.). Andover, Hampshire: Cengage.
