5 SUGGESTED READING LIST FOR ACVB CANDIDATES

The ACVB has developed the suggested reading list for individuals applying for membership, from the more general recommended reading list. Suggested readings are indicated by an asterisk (*). The intent of the more specific list is to help guide the candidate towards the more pertinent books that will assist them in preparing for the examination. The recommended list is not intended to suggest that the candidate should read every book on ethology or every book on learning theory, but rather is presented so as to demonstrate the breadth and scope of veterinary behavior. Neither list should be construed as a commitment regarding specific examination material. For the purposes of studying for the ACVB examination, it is suggested that an applicant review texts pertaining to general principles of behavior as well as species specific material, then use other books to fill in clinical information. Current texts in the fields of internal medicine, neurology (Lorenz or Chrisman et al), and neuroscience (Bear et al or Kandel et al) should also be reviewed, with emphasis on veterinary behavior. More timely material, available in periodicals listed below, should be consulted as well. Refer to the general reading list for additional references.
