Also in my derived classes I declare another type of object. It´s a

Not sure what you mean but I declared a List of objects like:
 

List<book> BookList = new List<book>();

Error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'List' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

System.Collection.Generic.List<Book> bookList = 
    new System.Collections.Generic.List<Book>();
