If I were a betting woman, I'd guesstimate that some idjit made the book using INDD. (InDesign). Nothing wrong with that, in and of itself, but there's a LOT wrong with it if the idjit doesn't know to optimize the images. It would be dead easy to make a 400mb file, with "only" a few hundred images or even less. EASY. It would also be easy to make it larger than needed with the inclusion of non-subset fonts, too.
