I have the books: "Handbook of Programming Languages" (a four
volume set), which are available used through Amazon or Half.com
for low prices.  (And I recommend them to readers here.)

Volume 1 is Object-Oriented Programming Languages, and volume 2
is Imperative Programming Languages. (Vol. 1 is about twice the
size of vol. 2.)

For that reason, I tended to think of imperative as exclusive
from object-oriented.  Not that you can't, or shouldn't, write
imperative programs in OO languages, but that it wouldn't be
used as a term in the description.  (Or, why is it that vol. 2
isn't called "Non-Object Oriented Languages"?)
