I don't think we really did end up in an object-oriented world. I think we ended up with nominally object-oriented languages used in ways that are more struct-oriented than object-oriented.
I had the good fortune to do early Java work with a bunch of Smalltalk programmers, so I know you can write Java that is reasonably well object oriented. But I don't think I ever saw an intro-to-Java book that was any good in that regard.
