If it's an old back-catalogue book, the ebook version is probably built from an OCRd scan of the print book. Easy to imagine errors and typos getting in that way. Newer books submitted to the publisher as Word files should have identical text regardless of the format. (which is not to say they will be typo-free, as with even the best will in the world, the odd one can slip through)
