Are there any learning materials of polynomial minimum cost flow algorithms?

Many people think they know how to solve the min-cost-max-flow problem, but most of them only know how to solve it with pseudo-polynomial time algorithm (although it usually runs very fast). And in this blog, min_25 provided a counter case generator, most people's MCMF algorithm runs in $$$O(2^{\frac n 2}n^2\log n)$$$ on it.

the counter case

I tried to find learning materials of polynomial minimum cost flow algorithms, but I can only find papers like A Faster Strongly Polynomial Minimum Cost Flow Algorithm and Theoretical Improvements in Algorithmic Efficiency for Network Flow Problems, and I can't understand them very well.

Are there any other learning materials besides the papers? Thanks in advance.
