Composer Richard Niles has brought out a book titled "Hits & Happiness: A Musical Memoir".
Covered is his involvement with PSB, with first hand anecdotes of how his contributions came about.
Richard Niles worked on Left To My Own Devices, Can You Forgive Her, Go West and Overture To Performance.
It's not a strictly Pet Shop Boys book, they're just one of many artists included.

I haven't read it, but there are some short promotional videos where he speaks about these topics.
