"My mind is known interiorly "by acquaintance," but my brain is known exteriorly "by description" (William James, Bertrand Russell).

That is why I can always to some degree see my own mind, but I can never see my own brain (without cutting open my skull and getting a mirror)."

I can know a dead person's brain by simply cutting open the skull and looking at it – but then I am not knowing or sharing that person's mind, am I? or how he felt and perceived and thought about the world.

The brain is the outside, the mind is the inside. The empirical systems sciences or ecological sciences, even though they claim to be holistic, in fact cover only one half of the story."
