Scowcroft returned as National Security Adviser to President H.W. Bush in 1989. Bush Sr. appointed Bob Strauss Ambassador to the [[Soviet Union]], which in short order made Strauss the first US Ambassador to the [[Russian Federation]], setting an example to the infant [[democracy]] how a two-party system and [[bipartisan]]ship work. In 1992 when the [[Clinton]]s took the [[White House]], Scowcroft was again out of a job. Scowcroft and Bush Sr. then collaborated on a book about the end of the [[Cold War]] entitled, ''A World Transformed'', an obvious take-off of [[Henry Kissinger]]'s book on [[Prince Metternich]] ''A World Restored''.
