Cash book is usually where a business will take out of that account to pay bills etc. Petty cash book is where a business will take and use that account in emergency reasons or for employee lunches, parties, other things of less importance then bills. I believe.
Cash book could be a checking or other type of money access account. Petty cash is money on hand.
Both of them are same.
