Vietnam Publishers Association Chairman Do Quy Doan said the books recognised span political theory, sociology and the humanities, and technological sciences.
A history of the special relationship between Vietnam and Laos from 1930 to 2007 won a special award.
Former Government Border Committee Head Dr Tran Cong Truc’s “Traces of Vietnam in the East Sea”, a work written with Dr Nguyen Nha, won the silver prize.
The book documents the substantial evidence indicating early traces of a Vietnamese presence in the East Sea, enlightening the reading public and affirming Vietnam’s valid defence of its maritime sovereignty.
