Brother To Dragons - Charles Sheffield

A baby almost dies at birth until a slight sign of life leads some medics to decide to try and save it, sickly and weak life thought it may have.

The boy grows up and gets along in an overpopulated and ruined world, eventually becoming involved with movers and shakers - and theri desire to find a brilliant biologist who wants to do things like enable humans to eat cellulose, or other modifications.

And of course if you make the poor less dependent those on power aren't too keen on the idea.
