Here are some titles you might want to check
out.  With the exception of "From socialism to Islam" all of these
titles are available through ABE Books. 
For that one I could not locate a local source.  It is however
available through Ohiolink or UW Madison.  If you are so inclined
you could probably score it through interlibrary loan from your public
library.  I also located this Wikipedia web page that might be of
interest.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_as_a_political_movement.  The Ejournal  Socialism Today  also has a lot to say about Islam and the Arab World.
