Known recently in France for his regular production on modern conflicts analysis and learning experience, his latest works habe translated in English and found a broader audience. His work on WW1 have been praised by many authors on WW1.

« Michel Goya formulates sophisticated arguments for understanding how armies learn, change and adapt which have ongoing resonances and relevance. I have been urging British publishers to translate Flesh and Steel during the Great War since it first came out, and congratulate Pen and Sword not only on doing so but also on securing Andrew Uffindell to do the work. He has produced a text that is accurate and fluent. In its new incarnation Flesh and Steel will attract fresh readers, among them not only historians of the First World War but also those concerned with the continuing challenges of military innovation and the processes by which it is achieved » Sir Hew Strachan
