Absolutely. A book that includes existing material will have one copyright for the new stuff, and have to license the old stuff.

For example, an anthology of short stories would have many copyright holders--one or more for each story, plus one or more for an introduction, editorial material, and so on. A novel can have one rightsholder for the original content, one for the translation, one for some song lyrics that were quoted, and more. A textbook on Photography or contemporary art would need a license for each image.

What this means for the user is that you might end up needing permission from a whole bunch of people just to copy what seems like one thing, because Behind the Scenes, it's a whole bunch of things.

When you fax a document does it copy the front and back on the same page?

You cannot fax a two-sided document. You must first take the two-sided document and make it two one-sided documents. Do this by selecting the 2 -> 1 feature on the printer/copier/fax machine's menu display and making a copy of the original document. You can then fax the two page document to the desired destination. But, as stated at the beginning of this answer, it is impossible to fax a two-sided document as a two-sided document. It must be a two page document (both pages being one-sided).
