Home › DNB Books
We went through the National Board of Examinations curriculum documents and pulled the recommended reading for every DNB broad specialty — reproduced word for word, then paired with the editions residents are really buying in 2026.
Doing MD or MS instead? The same specialty-by-specialty reading lists are on the MD & MS book guides.
Each page carries the reference reading list, the current editions, NBE's journal list, a three-year reading plan, and the references you'll want for your thesis and practical exam.
Every official list on this site was taken from an NBE curriculum document and each specialty page links to the exact source. Each specialty page also gives the texts residents and departments actually read, each with its current edition. Editions move on faster than curriculum documents do, so the official list and the current-edition list are kept visibly separate.
Directly from the National Board of Examinations curriculum documents for each broad specialty, published on nbe.edu.in. Each specialty page links to the exact source document it was taken from, and reproduces the titles as NBE writes them.
Frequently not. Curriculum documents are revised rarely, so an entry may name an edition several editions old, and a few titles are out of print entirely. Every page pairs the official list with the current edition residents are buying now.
