Currently reading: "Internet Architecture and Innovation" by Barbara van Schewick
https://netarchitecture.org/
This book is about the fundamental design principles of the Internet and what it means to deviate from them. It argues pro Network Neutrality.
I just got started and learned that there are in fact two "End-to-End arguments" and what the difference between them is. Very interesting :)
This book is a lot about economics, too, but it aims at being accessible for a diverse audience. As an engineer, so far it has been accessible to me. Let's see about the economic theory though.

The other version, called "the narrow version", only applies to some functions: End-to-End functions, which can only be correctly implemented at the endpoints of the system (mostly, that is within the application). The argument says that in this case, you need to implement it at the higher layer (e.g. within the application), and at the lower layer (e.g., on the physical link between two machines) only if it makes sense as a performance enhancement.
