    The author proposes a new iterative method for the approximation of convex compact bodies by polyhedra. The method uses few computations of the support function for the body being approximated. Upper estimates are obtained for the convergence rate of the method in the case of convex compact bodies, including nonsmooth ones. The method is compared with other approximation techniques for convex compact bodies.
