A good book about the time when Islamic domains made important and useful contributions is "The House of Wisdom" by James al Khalili, a frequently seen presenter on the BBC television programs on science.
"The Ornament of the World" by Maria Rosa Menocal on how Muslims, Jews and Christians created a culture of tolerance in Medieval Spain is worth reading too.
