One way to create a working, valid ToC is to open the book in calibre's Edit Book feature (shortcut key is "T") and edit the HTML code by each "Chapter $$$" header, to be enclosed in the
Code:
<h2>header goes here</h2>
HTML tags. Then use Generate ToC and it will find thse headers. If your book is not finding the chapters properly, it is probable that the header tags are missing. If you converted this book from a PDF, then I am guessing this is the problem...
For future reference, PDF is a horrible source format to use You must expect them to need special treatment.

Thank you very much, eschwartz, for the specifics and links; extremely helpful level of information, given that I am motivated, but brand new to Calibre, and to HTML.
This particular book was only available in pdf, and is worth the "special treatment" to me, and gives me an incentive to tackle the learning curve.
I'll explore the options you and the other posters have suggested, optimistically, now, and probably irrationally, too, at least at first.
