Abstract
In this paper, we show how simple logistic growth that was studied intensively during the last 200 years in many domains of science could be extended in a rather simple way. The resulting extended model has, among other features, two very important ones: Intermittency and Localization. These features were observed repeatedly along the history of science in an enormous number of real‐life systems in economics, sociology, biology, ecology and more. We suggest by this a unified theoretical umbrella that might serve in a surprising way many scientific disciplines who share similar observed patterns.
