Convert a deconstructed book...?

Hi.

Just getting into digital editions of books and ereaders. Got myself a Galaxy Tab 2, and paid for the pro version of Moon+Reader, which works like a charm without having to upload all my files from SD card to device.

Someone has emailed me a book, but when I open the folder it came in, rather than there just being a single file (epub, pdf etc) there's a bunch of muddled up stuff - an 'images' folder, 'META-INF', 'TEXT', 'style sheet'...

I now can't get hold of my friend to ask in any detail what I do with all this stuff to make up an ebook of some description, but the last thing he mentioned was Calibre. I've downloaded it to my imac and tried to drop various components of the book into it, but to be honest I don't have a clue what I'm doing.

Can anyone offer a little advice? Thanks.
