If you want a very good introductory book on networking and firewalls, look for Lucian Gheorghe's "Designing and Implementing Linux Firewalls and QoS using netfilter, iproute2, NAT, and L7-filter" (Packt, 2006; ISBN 1-904811-65-5). It may be somewhat dated, but it is still largely relevant. If you spelunk the internet, you should be able to find a PDF of the book to download. I did, and bought the printed version shortly after reviewing only a small part of the book.
