The abbreviation 'N.B.' comes from the Latin phrase 'Nota Bene'. The English equivalent of the complete phrase is most commonly rendered as follows: [May you] Note Well. In modern spoken English, the equivalent is more likely 'Pay attention'. For the phrase is intended to call attention to a particular aspect or detail of whatever is under discussion.

The abbreviation n.b. is the modern English version of the Latin phrase nota bene (note well, or take good notice). This is used in modern textbooks to emphasise a particular point.
