Že dlje časa je jasno, da se naša družba srečuje z več medsebojno povezanimi in prepletenimi problemi, t. i. zagonetnimi problemi. […] Težave nastopijo že pri definiranju problema, ki ga iz različnih zornih kotov in interesnih izhodišč vidimo drugače. Avtorica modela Tamara Lašič Jurković predlaga orodje, s pomočjo katerega lahko vidimo zagonetne probleme bolj celovito, zato da jih lahko bolje razumemo in se lahko posledično z njimi bolje spoprimemo. […] V drugem delu monografije nam izbrane magistrske naloge, ki so nastale na UL ALUO, ponujajo odlične študijske primere, s pomočjo katerih nam avtorica ilustrativno prikaže uporabo orodja. […] Monografija je pomemben prispevek k ilustraciji moči oblikovanja, ki skozi oblikovalski proces, s pomočjo ustvarjalnega mišljenja in z iskanjem ustvarjalnih rešitev najde alternative ustaljenim procesom in sistemom. Odpira upanje in svež pogled na zapleteno situacijo, ki ji ni videti konca.

The scientific monograph Echoes of Tomorrow offers an original, creative and innovative way of taking on intractable and complex societal challenges by proposing a tool to identify areas in which design can offer a response and the approaches it has at its disposal. It has long been apparent that our society is facing multiple interconnected and intertwined problems, i.e. wicked problems. […] Even defining such a problem poses difficulties, since different vantage points and underlying interests yield different perceptions of the problem. The model’s author, Tamara Lašič Jurković, sees it as an aid in obtaining a more holistic view and thus better understanding of wicked problems, which equips us to address them more effectively. […] The second part of the monograph features an assortment of master’s theses that the author has selected to illustrate the use of the tool. […] The monograph is an important illustration of the power of design to find alternatives to the established processes and systems through the design process by employing creative thinking and finding creative solutions. It offers hope and a fresh perspective on what appears to be a complicated situation with no end in sight.
