Abstract: A classical theorem of Alon and Milman states that any $d$ dimensional centrally symmetric convex body has a projection of dimension $mgeq{e}^{csqrtlnd}$ which is either close to the $m$-dimensional Euclidean ball or to the $m$-dimensional cross-polytope. We extended this result to non-symmetric convex bodies.
