Post Power vs Thrust??

If anyone can give me a laymans answer to the following, I would be very happy. With respect to Max RATE climb and max ANGLE climb, the books say that max RATE is acheived with excess POWER, whereas max ANGLE is with excess THRUST.
What is the differance between THRUST and POWER?
