It means to me as the principle that there are any unexpected outcomes to be happened. This could be supported by the quote the author has in his book, "We shape our buildings, and afterwards our buildings shape us." I think he is saying here that the technology we human have developed could well change -negatively, possibly- more other things of what we even haven't expected.

In my opinion, it would be very difficult for schools to educate the students with enhanced students together. That is because they are technologically enhanced that they differ to normal students too much in many ways, making hard to give an appropriate level of education for both of them. For example, the enhanced students have an incredible physical abilities that it is impossible giving an balanced level of P.E. class to all the students. When the level of lessen is set for the normal pupils, it will be too boring and meaning less to enhanced ones, while it cannot be set for the latter as it will be amazingly hard for the former. This will also question the concept of education that students should be given the level of education that is average for the students in that age.

The modifications to the human genome currently being studied and experimented with will eventually change human nature radically, to come to question the concept of human beings. For example, the cloning skill has been improving more and more, which could finally result in the birth of human race mixed with a species of animal in order to get the benefits that animals have. That could well change the definition of human unethically, making the human nature complicated.
