You do not need to study any programming to understand packets. You need to learn about how networks and protocols work. There are tons of ressources out there, including books, but you can learn a lot from free materials as well, e.g.

The Wireshark Users Guide

http://www.lovemytool.com/

and many others.

Update: I just found the Wireshark Jumpstart notes by Laura and Gerald, maybe they help, too.
