Good TCP/IP networking book for a programmer? [closed]

Tags:

tcp

Every day I write Web applications, and I have a good understanding of HTTP. However I want to close the gaps in my knowlege of network architecture. I'm not a sysadmin, so a hard-core sysadmin reference book would probably be a bit much for me, but I'm also not looking for a book on how to write code in any way -- I'm interested in the mechanisms underneath all that fun Web code I write.

Any recommendations?
