Strength, vs power, vs muscle.

So I hear that muscle and strength go hand to hand. Strength is more neurological with the firing of the motor units in the muscle fibers, and muscle is the how big and you need both to gain. But what about power? Power is how fast your muscles can exert a force, I haven't noticed this increasing and it seems you have to train for it. Is the only way to build power is by doing things like plyometrics? Or can you get it by doing a 1 rep max as fast as you can?

So this is like a individual type of training sort of like cardiovascular based training?
