Controversy

In 2010, Tang Jun became the focus of public controversy over his resume.[4] In the first edition of his book My Success is Replicable, Tang claimed to hold a doctoral degree in computer science from California Institute of Technology (Caltech).[5] However, Fang Zhouzi checked Caltech's alumni list[6] and lists of doctoral dissertations, and found no records for Tang. Tang stated that he did not have a degree from Caltech, and that he had never claimed to have received a degree there, but had conducted research there. Fang asked Tang to provide information about the kind of research and the names of professors at Caltech Tang had worked with. So far, Tang has not provided any relevant information. It raises the question whether Tang has ever conducted any research at Caltech. Furthermore, Fang has also pointed out that Pacific Western University (Hawaii) was named in the United States Government General Accounting Office report to the United States Congress. On July 8, 2010, the publisher of Tang's book My Success is Replicable made an official announcement to clarify and apologize for the mistake.[7] According to the publisher, due to communication insufficiency, they failed to find the mistake and correct it in time. On the second edition of the book, they made the correction.[8]
