旧唐书

Special works on acupuncture-moxibustion amounted to twelve kinds and thirty-nine volumes recorded in JIU TANG SHU, and TANG SHU.

唐代的针灸专著在《旧唐书》、《唐书》中收载十二种、三十九卷之多；

Their purpose was to supplement the inadequacies of Old Book of Tang.

从其修撰的目的能够看出，《新唐书》就是为了补充《旧唐书》的不足之处。

The Jiu Tang Shu has a specific chapter recording the early history of Arab Empire and Sino-Arab contact before the beginning of 10th century.

旧唐书中有专门一个章节是关于阿拉伯帝国早期历史，以及10世纪前的中国-阿拉伯关系史。

The Old Book of Tang once recorded such a story: someone got a picture about paling music without knowing its name.

《旧唐书》曾记载这样一个故事：有人得到一幅奏乐图，不知其名。

And it is not denied that the historical value of the astronomical records in Old Tang Books can not be replaced by the New Tang Books.

但不可否认，《旧唐书•天文志》仍有《新志》无法替代的史料价值。
