They don't buy a book. They buy the right to make copies, which
otherwise is restricted to the copyright holder. In many cases
the contract specifies circumstances under which the publisher
will lose that right and it will revert back to the author.

No. When I go to a bookstore and make a purchase, no one makes a
copy of a book. There are piles and cases of books available, and
I pick one up and buy it.
