Power steering means that there is basically a small motor helping you to steer. W/o power steering there's only a sort of gear box and your arms that are turning the front wheels to another direction.
Power steering systems can be diagrammed into two chief components. These are the power steering pump and the rack-and-pinion steering gear. The power steering pump sends pressurized fluid into the rack which moves the gear actuating the tie-rods, which moves the wheels in the desired direction. The power steering pump has a low pressure return line and high pressure out one.
