I know why (personally and through some papers).  I am looking
for more references to papers and books that have empirical and/or
good justification as to why I should use OO versus Procedural versus
Functional versus Logic....

I feel good about OO, but I want to be able to cite research in my
discussions as to the benefits of
   reuse, sharing, maintainability, ...
