There is also a little book by John Flemming, 'Inflation', OUP 1976 and one by John Fender 'Inflation: A contemporary perspective' Wheatsheaf 1990. Neither these nor those previously suggested really answers the question put because none of them gets to the bottom of the cost-push theory (and some are very much written with an attitude of opposition to it which, whilst just fine in itself, does not really make for a comprehensive review). I had a bit of a go at describing the shape of that theory, though nowhere near fully covering its various forms, in 'Macroeconomics and the Phillips curve myth' OUP 2014, esp p. 111-116, and the background presumptions giving rise to that outlook in 'Macroeconomics and the L-shaped aggregate supply curve' in Kriesler and Harcourt (eds). Oxford Handbook of Post-Keynesian economics, OUP 2013.

I know it was a time of great disagreement -- OPEC, unions, corporate monopoly power and administered prices, money growth, and the Phillips curve were all explanations -- but if there's an article or two that spells them all out, I'd love to see it.
