What books are worth recommending to understand the historical and social features of the Tang Dynasty?

I recommend the history of Sui and Tang Dynasties. Mr. Cen Zhongmian is a famous person in the field of Tang history. He is as famous as Mr. Chen Yinque of Sun Yat-sen University. This book is a textbook compiled by Mr. Cen. This book divides the theme chapters more closely, but it is not as good as the latter two books because of its complete system and clear context. However, the author's knowledge of philology has reached a superb level, and this book is commendable. In many nuances, he can write things that other works can't discuss. Many of Mr. Cen's questions are diametrically opposed to Mr. Chen Yinque's, which can be seen in a large number of chapters in the book, and can only be understood if you are familiar with Mr. Chen's books. This book belongs to a book that can greatly improve the cognitive level after having a certain basic knowledge of Tang Shi and before going back to reading.
