Is there a way for a book page to automatically inherit the taxonomy settings of the parent node when it is created from the add child menu, or during submission?

no/yes
Not within the existing core book or taxonomy modules
However, this probably wouldn't be hard to do with a little custom code (a small module implementing hook_nodeapi).

If I understand correctly,
If I understand correctly, you want all pages of a book to be assigned a category (the same one, since all children will inherit their parent's category)
There could be a workaround... Because not only book pages but any content type can be placed in a book outline, you could use different content types (created with CCK) instead of different books. Nodes of each content type attached to a book outline would be a kind of book. So, you could use the taxonomy_defaults module which automatically attaches a predefined category to the nodes of a content type during submission.
