I've heard of a book in English that is a veritable encyclopedia of official titles used during the Tang Dynasty. Has anyone heard about it? And if so, does anyone know what the name of the book is?

The book is "A Dictionary of Official Titles in Imperial China" by Charles O.Hucker, but it's not exclusive of Tang Dynasty. I have consulted it for my thesis about Xue Tao, a Mid-Tang poetess, whom assigned the title of Jiaoshu 校书, reviser of text.
Bye.
