* For clarity, I refer to the boy by both of his given names, Hans Albert, although his father invariably referred to him simply as Albert. At one<br />

point, Einstein wrote a letter to his son and signed it “Albert” instead of “Papa.” In his next letter, he awkwardly began, “The explanation for<br />

the curious signature on my last letter is that, in my absentmindedness, instead of signing my own name, I frequently sign for the person to<br />

whom the letter is addressed” (Einstein to Hans Albert Einstein, March 11 and 16, 1916).
