The more important properties of the class κ of all bounded convex bodies in E3 with non-empty interior include: uniform approximability by polyhedra, existence of volume and surface area, and Blaschke's selection principle, [l ], [2 ]. In this note we define and consider a class H of star-shaped bodies in E3, which enjoys many properties of κ, among them the above-mentioned ones, and is considerably larger. Roughly speaking, H consists of closed bounded sets in E3 with nonempty interior, whose boundary is completely visible from every point of a set with non-empty interior. It turns out that H is identifiable with the class of all real-valued positive functions on the sphere S3 which satisfy a Lipschitz condition.
