The best beginners' programming book I have found is Eric Nitikin's 'Into
the Realm of Oberon'(Springer, November 1997, ISBN: 0387982795). It might
only need an additional chapter or two to explain how to build and run the
examples in BlackBox. If I was ever to attempt to introduce anybody to
programming again, that is the book I would use.
Once that initial stage had been completed, the book I would recommend to
explain the transition from structured to component-paradigm (i.e.
object-oriented paradigm) is Hanspeter Mössenböck's 'Object-Oriented
Programming in Oberon-2'. (Springer-Verlag. Edition 1993, ISBN
3-540-56411-X, Edition 1995, ISBN 3-540-60062-0).
Both are currently listed and available from Amazon.
