Rentsch's words above, but I was taught exactly the reverse. When I
first read about OO programming the books said that the idea was to
completely remove interfaces that depended on data-structures. The
idea was that every bit of information was returned by some method or
other and that only the methods of an object need know the contents of
the fields.

The idea is more that the data structures will still exist, it's just
that having an interface removes the dependency on specific fields
being present and having specific values used in specific ways.

I don't think you can have meaningful object oriented programming with
objects, objects being essentially sets of fields.
